While Conan, Kogoro, and Ran wait for an interview with the famous painter Kenjin Hanaoka, he oversleeps; his mistress, Izumi Chono, wakes him by painting something on his cheek. Izumi threatens to reveal a secret to his wife — namely, that she was the one who actually painted the majority of his works. In response, Hanaoka strikes her, killing her with an ashtray. As Hanaoka is already running significantly behind schedule, Mr. Tanaka attempts to call him at Izumi’s home, but only reaches her answering machine. Shortly thereafter, the phone rings, but there's no one on the other end. Conan notices a futon hanging on the balcony — even though it is raining. | |||
At 6:30 a.m., Hanaoka finally arrives at the office, claiming he had been in his studio. Ran notices that one of his little fingers is covered in nail polish, prompting him to rush to the restroom to remove it. A moment later, Izumi calls the office; Hanaoka tells those present that she intends to jump from the balcony. Conan and the others look out the window and witness Izumi falling to her death. Inspector Megure, arriving at the scene, assumes it's a suicide — but Conan notices a contact lens in Izumi’s eye, even though she was wearing glasses when she fell. He suspects Hanaoka, though he doesn't yet know how the painter committed the crime. | |||

When Conan draws Inspector Megure’s attention to a contact lens, the inspector realizes that Ms. Chono must have been murdered — after all, there would be no reason for someone to wear both contact lenses and glasses at the same time. Kenjin Hanaoka, however, insists that it was clearly a suicide, arguing that no one else could have been on the balcony with her. Nevertheless, Megure orders a search of the victim’s apartment. The inspector finds it suspicious that the apartment door was left unlocked. Near the entrance, Kogoro discovers a nail on the floor. On the balcony, they find a pair of slippers, a telephone, and a broken flowerpot; Conan notes that the shards are arranged in a line leading toward the drain. A contact lens case is also discovered. To bolster his suicide theory, Hanaoka urges the police to look for a suicide note. Meanwhile, in the living room, Megure finds a photo album containing pictures of Izumi’s sleeping victims, which she had decorated with painted-on butterflies. | |||
When nail polish — along with a small bottle — is discovered on the bedsheet, Conan points out that it was Hanaoka, not the victim, who was wearing that specific nail polish. As Ran tries to grab Conan to take him home, he clings to the refrigerator door and pulls it open; in that moment, he notices that the contact lens solution is missing. A neighbor had reported seeing a suspicious person, but that individual suddenly appears — it turns out to be a delivery person who had forgotten to provide a receipt after picking up a package. He shows the receipt to Kogoro, with Hanaoka listed as the sender. Hanaoka, however, sticks to his claim that he was in his office at the time of the fall. When the deliveryman reports that the door suddenly opened, a nail fell to the floor, and he heard a clinking sound, Conan sees through the murderer’s trick and discovers a long string inside the drainpipe. | |||

File 126 - A Suspicious Suicide
When Conan draws Inspector Megure’s attention to a contact lens, the inspector realizes that Ms. Chono must have been murdered — after all, there would be no reason for someone to wear both contact lenses and glasses at the same time. Kenjin Hanaoka, however, insists that it was clearly a suicide, arguing that no one else could have been on the balcony with her. Nevertheless, Megure orders a search of the victim’s apartment. The inspector finds it suspicious that the apartment door was left unlocked. Near the entrance, Kogoro discovers a nail on the floor. On the balcony, they find a pair of slippers, a telephone, and a broken flowerpot; Conan notes that the shards are arranged in a line leading toward the drain. A contact lens case is also discovered. To bolster his suicide theory, Hanaoka urges the police to look for a suicide note. Meanwhile, in the living room, Megure finds a photo album containing pictures of Izumi’s sleeping victims, which she had decorated with painted-on butterflies.
When nail polish — along with a small bottle — is discovered on the bedsheet, Conan points out that it was Hanaoka, not the victim, who was wearing that specific nail polish. As Ran tries to grab Conan to take him home, he clings to the refrigerator door and pulls it open; in that moment, he notices that the contact lens solution is missing.

When the deliveryman reports that the door suddenly opened, a nail fell to the floor, and he heard a clinking sound, Conan sees through the murderer’s trick and discovers a long string inside the drainpipe.
